i always thought things screw up when you didn't do enough.
you forget to change the water and the fish die, you forget to do your homework and your grades suffer. ever felt like sometimes, maybe, for some things, things screw up when you do too much?

i don't know honestly.

are friends necessities? or commodities?
i've always seen friends as necessities. maybe i've been a little stupid.
don't put all your eggs into the same basket because when it gives way, you end up looking retarded, confused, and not knowing what action to take next. oh, not to mention very very icky. a little like me.

today in church.

Han asked our class what was the most important thing in our lives now.
"friend/s? work? design? gaming? family?" i thought to myself almost instantaneously.

to which was the question posed: "what if God asked you to give it up? could you give it up?"

ever noticed when you put your finger to a baby's palm and he grips it so tightly it seems he never wants to let go?
and as you grow older, the age to strength proportion never really seems so prominent?
i guess thats how things should be. your willingness to let go should get stronger with maturity.

when i look at myself. i haven't grown at all. i cling to what i'm familiar with- with the ideals i have, with the values i deem important, and i never seem to have the willpower to let go.


now it when it feels like something is chiding me to let go, i'm still left asking myself:


could you give it up?


--------------------------------------------------

Precious Lord, take my hand,
Lead me on, let me stand,
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn;
Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me on to the light:

Refrain

Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.

When my way grows drear,
Precious Lord, linger near,
When my life is almost gone,
Hear my cry, hear my call,
Hold my hand lest I fall:

Refrain

When the darkness appears
And the night draws near,
And the day is past and gone,
At the river I stand,
Guide my feet, hold my hand:

Refrain

today i talked to a friend online.
her best friend broke up with her boyfriend and was really depressed over what is supposed to the worst breakup her best friend has had.

days like these make thankful that i'm ugly and that nobody loves me.

don't give up on me yet
don't forget who I am
I know I'm not there yet
but don't let me stay here alone.
